Hi, I'm looking for API that provides real time data for Mars orbiting satellites similar to that of Earth's orbiting satellites either in TLE or JSON format. Please include this as well in NASA's APIs or please mention any sources that does have such API.

Do you mean natural satellites (Phobos and Deimos) or artificial probes?

The full list of objects known by horizons is:
https://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/horizons_batch.cgi?batch=1&COMMAND=%27*%27&CENTER=%27@0%27

Phobos = 401, Deimos = 402

Positive numbers = natural bodies
Negative numbers = artificial bodies

Want to know positions of Mars Reconaissance Orbiter? Its id is -74, mars is 499, hence click here.
